By inactivating DA1, DAR1 and DAR2 through deubiquitination, UBP12 and UBP13 regulate leaf growth, cell area and endoreduplication.

Variation in the gene NaMPK4 in plant populations increases reproductive yield, an effect which appears to be independent of soil water availability, neighbor-scale interactions and associations with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.

A cytorhabdovirus phosphoprotein hijacks host CCR4 to trigger turnover of viral nucleoprotein (N)-bound cellular RNAs, thereby releasing nascent RNA-free N protein molecules to bind viral genomic RNAs for optimal replication.

The development of genomic tools and publicly available resources in polyploid wheat provides a framework to understand biologically important traits in crops with large genomes.

Differences in HDR product preference present a novel mechanism in plants to control substrate availability for short- and long-chain isoprenoids.

Genetic analyses reveal that the TIR1/AFB auxin receptors have broadly overlapping functions throughout plant development, but that the AFB1 receptor has a specialized role in a rapid auxin response.

Plant reticulons bind Atg8 under ER stress to promote reticulophagy and ameliorate ER stress in the maize endosperm.

The examination of the ultra-structure and in vivo dynamics of endocytosis in plants reveal plants unique actin-independent, clathrin-mediated endocytosis mechanisms to overcome their unique physiological properties.

A new way to culture and image flowers is uncovering the processes that take place in reproductive cells buried deep in plants.

Light sheet microscopy was used to establish a method for live imaging of cellular events within Arabidopsis flower and for constructing a 3D model of flower at subcellular resolution.
